After playing it a bunch, I can actually get behind the 10/10 scores for once. So far there's no real flaws, nothing that gets in the way of my enjoyment, only greatness! It's criminal that this game is only tied with BotW, totally should be above it imo!

Oh I'm not worked up in the slightest, just touched down in New Donk City and loving every bit of it, but I just was talking about the financial reasons why some reviews exist, they're in the business to make money and that happens by writing a review which gets hits, right now a green gets no money for a site basically.

I will always question when someone says a comment like "we always are more critical of X companies games" there is no reason behind that, if they have a problem with the developer just ignore their games, if the site as a whole is aware that they cannot review a game without bias then they have no right to appear on meta as a professional critic site. Doesn't matter if it's more for or against a game company, if the logo that fires up on screen first has any impact on the final score you give a product that just isn't a worth while review. Doesn't matter who makes something, if it's great , then it's great, taking off points because you don't like a company which makes it is just petty.

I certainly can't say the same thing for all those pre-baked replies of yours. Ever think by yourself sometime?

There's no excuse for the immature name-calling brewing in here, knock if off everyone.

I tried hard to convince myself to buy this game, but I failed. 3D Mario games are simply not for me. I would rather play SMB3. I wish Nintendo satisfies my gaming needs with a true successor to SMB3, just like Odyssey, according to the 3D Mario fans, is a true successor to SM64.

Just dropped behind galaxy 2 on metacritic all time chart, now number 8.

I kinda new someone would ask, this rather pertinent question. Despite being a great game in its own right, SMW was, to me, a bit of a let down when compared to SMB3. But without getting in the merits of weather SMB3 is better than SMW or not, let me ask you this: Wouldn’t it be cool if Nintendo gave us a true successor to either, SMB3 or World? I talking about new world themes with amazing new music, art and enemies. What do you think about that?

What everyone's gonna see is them both having 97 though. The rest of your post is pretty silly, for I did enjoy BotW a lot, easily my favorite Zelda game now. I'm of course aware of the general consensus on the game, and I never said my opinion makes other's wrong, though so to does their opinions not make mine wrong. I don't agree with the popular opinion on BotW that's for sure, and if you have a problem with that, well, too bad! I'm not just gonna shut up because you don't like what I'm saying, sorry.  

71 positive reviews and no mixed yet... wonder who will be the first, even those un-scored and in progress reviews all look to be glowing praise for the game.

I know the urge to cash in and get all those clicks is going to be tough to resist now for any site in need of a bit of ad rev.

Though I too had some reservations, you guys saying Odyssey's absolutely brilliants makes me want to get out and buy a Switch and play Mario. My mind was conflicted, but really, it's a successor to Mario 64, and made by what's maybe the greatest dev-team ever; how could it not be brilliant?!
